All -
First, thanks for all the responses to my first questions - this is a great mailing list/community! Second, I have made progress with the LC yesterday - replaced the battery and added some RAM (x86 RAM does work!). Now, I have a couple of questions: Why does is the sound so poor? I understand that it's a 8MHz mono soundcard going through a speaker, but when I plugged speakers into the jack on the back, the sound was at least as bad, if not worse (and no louder). I have to have the volume maxed out to hear anything, and there is so much feedback that it sounds more like buzzes that sounds. Is it just my machine or is it an LC thing, and is there anything I can do about it? I have a CD-ROM drive that I tried to hook up. I have a terminator in place (on the top SCSI port of the drive). When the address is set to 1 or 7 (the ends of the numbering scheme) I get a floppy with an "X" when I reboot. when I change the number to 2-6, the computer boots fine from the hard drive, but I can't access a CD. When I put the sled into the drive the light changes to green for a few seconds, then goes back to amber. The CD is a hybrid WIN/Mac kids' game (I don't expect it to run, but I do expect to at least be able to read it). Again, what do I need to do to get this going? Thanks again!
